More Bad News For Southeast Kansas In Latest Health Rankings

This year’s report comparing the health of nearly all of the counties in Kansas looks very much like last year’s report. As Kansas Public Radio’s Bryan Thompson explains, the southeast part of the state is decidedly less healthy than the rest of Kansas.


Jim McLean, of the KHI News Service, will be along at 6:30 and 8:30 with a related feature on how Wyandotte County is trying to improve its health status, so stay tuned for that.

Bryan Thompson has been KPR's Health Reporter since 2000. He's a lifelong Kansan, and a graduate of Wichita State University. He's been involved in radio news longer than he'd care to admit, serving as news director at stations in El Dorado, Liberal, and Salina before joining KPR. He and his wife, Cindy, are the parents of six outstanding children--one of whom now looks down on them from above. In his spare time, Bryan enjoys music and sports.
